九必修3 Unit 9 WheelsⅠ. 阅读理解AIf you live in Washington, D. C. , or Redwood, Calif. , you may have glimpsed a small, boxy robot rolling along a local sidewalk, minding its own business, but attracting the attention of many a curious onlooker. The autonomous machines were part of a pilot program last year by Starship Technologies focused on delivering meals from local restaurants in dozens of cities around the world.“Today, more than ever, people lead a busy and diverse life, ” Lex Bayer, Starship’s CEO, said in a statement online. “The hassle of needing to rearrange your life for a delivery will become a thing of the past. You don’t have to switch your working from home day, reschedule meetings, visit a locker, drive to a post office or contact a deliveryman all because of a missed delivery. ”The package delivery service is not available to everyone just yet. The company said it’s rolling out the service in Milton Keynes, England. The wheeled robots have a top speed of 4 mph and can detect obstacles from as far as 30 feet away. “The robot can operate through just about anything, ” Nick Handrick, head of operations for Starship’s D. C. office, told The Washington Post’s Maura Judkis last year. “If you had something in the way—a stick—it’s able to climb the edges of a road. ”By giving customers control of when deliveries occur, Starship Technologies is offering its service as a way to battle package theft. In its announcement, the company cited statistics from a Wakefield Research Poll for Comcast last year that found that 3 in 10 Americans who live in houses or townhouses have had packages stolen.To sign up for the service, which costs a little more than $10 per month, customers need to download the company’s app. Custo mers then create a “Starship Delivery Address”, a unique address inside a Starship facility, instead of a residence, where they can have packages sent from places such as Amazon. com. Once a package is delivered to the Starship address, customers receive a text that allows them to schedule a home delivery via robot.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文, 主要介绍了一项新科技发明——世界上第一个机器人包裹递送服务。

高考题型提能练九 Unit 9 WheelsⅠ.阅读理解A(2016·河南省普通高中毕业班适应性测试)Is geography important? Here's a question for you to answer.What have the following countries got in common: Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom, Iceland and Madagascar?Quite easy if you can picture them on the globe — they are all islands. All of these nations are surrounded by sea.What have these five nations got in common? Hungary, Botswana, Kazakhstan, Paraguay and Liechtenstein. They are all landlocked. In other words, in contrast to the first five countries whose coastline forms their border, the second five have no coastline at all. If you are a Hungarian or a Paraguayan, you have to pass through somebody else's country if you want to go to the beach.Liechtenstein is even more of a geographic al phenomenon; it is “doubly landlocked” because the countries that surrou nd it —Austria and Switzerland are also landlocked. There is only one other country in the world in a similar position, Uzbekistan, which is surrounded by five other landlocked countries. Go and have a look at the map if you want to know which.So how do countries become landlocked? If you are Swiss or Nepalese, you have probably never thought things could be a ny other way. Switzerland's mountains, like the Himalayas, have formed a natural boundary for thousands of years. But there are borders. Where one country ends and another begins is not something that is fixed for all time.There are countries like Ethiopia and Bolivia which did have a bit of coast but don't any more. Does it matter? The Ethiopians are not happy that the creation of Eritrea means they now have to use another country's port, when before they had a long coastline on the Red Sea.But why does coastline matter so much? Throughout history people have preferred to live near the sea, and not just for the fish. Sea means trade, which means wealth. Think of the great successful cities like Singapore, New York or Hong Kong today. Russia has fought several wars over the centuries so that its ships could have access to the Baltic, the Black Sea and the Pacific.________________1.What have countries like Hungary, Botswana, Kazakhstan, Paraguay and Liechtenstein got in common?A.They have no borders.B.They have no coastline at all.C.They are all surrounded by sea.D.They had long coastlines before.2.Which group of the following countries are doubly landlocked ones?A.Liechtenstein and Uzbekistan.B.Iceland and Madagascar.C.Australia and the United Kingdom.D.Austria and Switzerland.3.Why does coastline matter so much?A.Because sea means wealth.B.Because people can eat fish.C.Because borders are fixed all time.D.Because people prefer to live near the sea.4.What's the missing sentence at the end of the text?A.Coastline is the main cause of wars.B.Then what's the disadvantage of coastline?C.Geography, it seems, can make a big difference.D.Perhaps other means of transport can be improved.B(2016·济南市调研考试)Raised by a single mother in Hartford, Fred Wright struggled with behavioral problems and was forced to move from one school to another. He even reached a point where he felt like he had nothing to live for.“I was walking around with a lot on my shoulders，” he said.“I couldn't handle it. I didn't care about life anymore.” But all that started to change when Wright met Patricia Kelly.“I was seven when I met Mrs Kelly.I wasn't used to strictness. I wasn't used to hearing the word ‘no’，”said Wright, now 17.Kelly, a former soldier and an equestrian (骑手), took Wright under her wing and helped him find hope in an unlikely place — on a horse.“Wright was like a round peg that everybody kept trying to squeeze into a square hole，” Kelly said.“He was hurting. He needed a place where he could express himself. The riding field became that place for him.”For the last 30 years, Kelly has helped children stay on the right track through her nonprofit, Ebony Horsewomen. The program offers horseback riding lessons and teaches animal science to more than 300 young people a year. By exposing those children to horsemanship, Kelly aims to give them an alternative to the streets and an opportunity to turn their lives around.“We use horses as a hook to create pride, esteem and healing，” said Kelly, 66.“They learn that they have ability. They just have to unlock it.”“When you teach a child to ride a horse, they learn they are the center of their environment，” said Kelly.“Once they make that connection, they can change what happens in school, at home and in the community.”5.Why did Fred Wright have to move from one school to another?A.Because his mother couldn't afford the fees.B.Because his parents got divorced.C.Because he behaved badly at school.D.Because he didn't set a life goal.6.How did Patricia Kelly help Fred Wright?A.She provided him with a home.B.She encouraged him to learn science.C.She exposed him to the riding field.D.She found him a better school.7.What do we know about the program Ebony Horsewomen?A.It is intended to make money.B.It was founded by Patricia Kelly.C.It aims to protect the environment.D.It serves as a shelter for homeless kids.8.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A.Horse riding is helpful to the growth of kids.B.Patricia Kelly is a very successful woman.C.Horses are closely related to the environment.D.It is hard for a kid to learn to ride a horse.C(2016·成都外国语学校模拟) “Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a lowcarbon economy，” a Chinese government official said in Shanghai yesterday.“China doesn't lag developed nations in terms of energy saving and green economy，” said Zhou Changyi, director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.“While we can learn many aspects from developed nations, they also should learn something from us, such as water conservation，” Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China's Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair 2009.He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to combat climate change. The United Kingdom, for example, is concerned about transport, buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions.For China, the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized.As such, overseas exhibitors at this year's fair are showing ways to help China achieve lowcarbon emissions in the industrial section.Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product life cycle assessment, or LCA, which is used to study the environmentalimpact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling.Tobias Becker, head of ABB's process automation division for North Asia and China, said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions.LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product's environmental impact throughout its life cycle instead of on its initial investment or ready to use stage.For example, a motor's initial investment accounts for only 3 percent of its life cycle cost, while 94 percent goes to fuel consumption and the rest to maintenance.Richard Hausmann, North East Asia CEO of Siemens, said：“The color of future industrialization is green.”The Germany Company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros (D|S 8.8 billion) for intelligent net power networks, Smart Grid, over the next five years.Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business.A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology, advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy, reduce costs and increase reliability.The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid.9.The underlined word “lag” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”.A.fall behindB.be superior toC.attackD.fear10.Which of the following about LCA is TRUE?A.LCA is used to study the impact on a product.B.LCA can help manufacturing industries decrease carbon release a lot.C.LCA shows industrial customers should focus on a product's environmental influence on its initial investment.D.LCA was one of the exhibitions at this year's fair.11.We can infer from the last paragraph of this passage that ________.A.Siemens has occupied 20 percent market share for the global smart grid businessB.Siemens received orders worth 6 billion Euros recentlyC.Siemens will earn D|S8.8 billion from intelligent power networksD.Siemens' plan about Smart Grid may come true in the future12.The best title for the passage is ________.A.Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn fromEach OtherB.LowCarbon Economy — a Shared GoalC.Intelligent Power NetworksD.Two Biggest Markets for Smart GridⅡ.任务型阅读(2016·河北邢台市摸底考试)Do's and Don'ts of DonatingGiving up your unused or unwanted stuff is a great way to make space in yourhome for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis. 1.________ Here are four do's and don'ts of donating your belongings.Do Prep Your ClothesYou've thoroughly cleaned ou t your closets and drawers, and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated. Before you bag up these pieces, inspect each one to ensure that they're in good condition.

But unfortunately some people will throw away the contents of their home without a second thought. As a gentle reminder, it's never a good idea to donate car parts, flammable products, construction materials, weapons, or explosives.A.Nobody wants to inherit your damaged belongings.B.Food donations are always in need.C.Don't Even Think of Donating These ItemsD.Not sure where to start?E.Don't Donate Large AppliancesF.Clothes aren't the on ly household item that can be donated.G.Wash the items to make them fresh and ready for their new owners.Ⅲ.语法填空(2016·江西省九校联合考试)If you read a newspaper or listen to a newscast (news report) recently, you may hear or read a strange word “staycation”.Staycat ion is 1.________ new word the American press (newspapers, radio, and television) is using 2.________ (describe) a vacation very clo se to your own home, 3.________ simply staying at home during your vacation.

AThe color red often means danger—and by paying attention, accidents can be prevented. At railroad crossings, flashing red lights warn cars to stay back. A red light at a traffic crossing tells cars to stop, so they don't run into other cars.In the future, the color red also may help prevent danger at construction sites. Thanks to new work by engineers, bridge supports—or other kinds of materials—could one day contain a color-changing material. It will turn red before a structure collapses W1or falls apart.The secret behind the color-changing material is a particular type of molecule W2. Molecules come in all shapes and sizes, and make up P1 everything you can see, touch or feel. How a molecule behaves depends on P2what kinds of atoms W3it contains, and how they're held together.To get a rough picture of one way atoms are held together in a molecule, imagine you and your friends standing in a large circle, holding hands. Each person represents one atom, your clasped hands represent the bond, and the entire circle represents a molecule.The molecule being used to turn the material red is called mechanophore W4. When one chemical bond in the mechanophore molecule breaks, the rest of the molecule turns red.There is a way to get rid of P3the red color: light. When a bright light is shone on the mechanophore, the broken bond is fixed and the red color disappears. This “selfhealing” may be a problem for engineers who want to use the color-changer in big construction projects that will be outside, in the sunlight. And if bright light keeps the red color from appearing, then the mechanophore's warning system will be useless.Scientists still have a lot of work to do before the color-changing molecules can be used outside the lab.S If mechanophore can be used in the real world, they are suggested to be employed in a new kind of paint.1. The first paragraph mainly tells us ________.A. the color red is widely used in our lifeB. how to prevent car accidentsC. the color is an important signal of warningD. how to use color red2. The color red will be used at construction sites to ________.A. tell different materials used in the buildingB. warn people that the building is dangerousC. make the building more beautifulD. tell people the building is under construction3. The example given in the fourth paragraph is to show ________.A. the way atoms are held together in a moleculeB. how a molecule behaves in an objectC. how to play an old gameD. how people get along with each other4. What can make the mechanophore's warning system ineffective?A. Paints.B. Water.C. Poor building materials.D. The bright light.B“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it！”That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.All children soon learn what “Don't touch！” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy, such as food, clothes and so on. To see something well, we have to touch it.The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad floor. All feel different under your feet.There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch! There you can feel every thing on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you'll really see！”5. Which of the following can be the best title of the story?A. Touching by FeelingB. To See or to FeelC. To See Better—FeelD. Ways of Feeling6. When people buy things in shops, they often ________.A. try them on firstB. put their right hand on themC. just has a lookD. feel and touch them7. Why does it say, “At first, it is not easy to feel these things？”A. The things are used by people, too.B. People are used to the things.C. People know how to use the things.D. The things are easy to feel.CIt's a warm summer afternoon. You're cooking up the catch of the day over a campfire W1. Suddenly, a few raindrops fall on your arms, and before you know it, the sky is opened up. Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance P1. What should you do? Your tent is close by and would offer shelter from the pouring rain. There's a campsite picnic shelter a few minutes down the path. And then you remember that your car is parked down the road. What's your safest choice to make sure P2 you and your families are safe?It's a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they're camping during summer months. Heading to your car is almost always the safest choice. Your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection W2against lightning W3. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect you from P3lightning strikes.

After locals started bringing them injured animals，they built a wildlife hospital and have since cared for 170 otters.Paul has gained a PhD in otter ecology and they've set up the International Otter Survival Fund ()，which supports conservation projects worldwide.Their three kids had carefree childhoods in a tight-knot community.“We could give them lots of freedom because people watch out for each other's children here，” Grace explains.She continues，“We go to Inverness (a town in northern Scotland) about once a year for a concert，but otherwise everything we want is here.You have to be mentally and practically self-sufficient.We built a metal shed(小屋)，but that took off in the 90 mph winds.Anything not built solidly will leave.It's often very dark and wet from November to March，which can be quite depressing.If there's wind and rain at the same time，no amount of waterproof clothing will keep you dry.But we make up for it in the summer.With the long days，there's nowhere better.”Paul concludes，“There's something so special about living here and having a sense of belonging.”[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文.一对夫妇为了远离城市的喧嚣来到苏格兰西北部的斯凯岛居住.5．What can we learn about Paul and Grace?A．They grew up in the countryside.B．They have difficulty getting along with others.C．They hold different opinions as to where to live.D．They're determined and environmentally aware.解析：推理判断题.根据第四段中的Five years and 29 loan applications later，they moved可知，他们执着追求梦想；根据第三段中的It was our dream...run wildlife holidays and courses以及第五段介绍的他们在保护野生动物方面的所作所为可知，Grace和Paul夫妇有强烈的环保意识.答案：D6．What's life on Skye like in Grace's eyes?A．It's lonely.B．It's quite busy.C．It can be hard sometimes.D．It may be boring for young people.解析：细节理解题.根据倒数第三段和倒数第二段中Grace所说的话You have to be mentally and practically self-sufficient...Anything not built solidly will leave.It's often very dark and wet...can be quite depressing.If there's wind and rain at the same time，no amount of waterproof clothing will keep you dry可知，由于地理位置和天气因素，在岛上生活有时也很艰难.答案：C7．What's the best title for the text?A．A remote islandB．An otter-saving projectC．Getting away from it allD．Feeling at home in the city?解析：标题归纳题.文章讲述了一对夫妇为了远离城市的嘈杂来到一个僻静的岛上生活的故事.故Getting away from it all准确地概括了文章的主旨.第三段的get away from the rat race点明了他们的动机.答案：CCFor many Floridians，treasure is found in the weather，sun and sand.For others，the word ‘treasure’ holds true meaning.If you're willing to put in a little bit of work，there's a wealth of information in what lies just beneath the surface.Tales of treasure run deep in Florida's history.While they may seem like nothing more than fairy tales，in Florida there is a truth to the_talk.This summer，salvage(海滩救助) companies uncovered millions of dollars worth of gold on the east side of the state.While these types of finds are reserved for the professionals，other finds are for you to recover.“I've always been a lover of history.Anything that I can hold in my hand，” said Ed Tisdale，a Cape Coral man who，with his friend Norman Jones，has spent decades searching our sands with his metal detector.With half-a-century of metal detecting between the two，you can see them any given day on the hunt.What is the attraction of combing these beaches?“Well，it's never knowing what you're going to find，” replied Jones.“You're going to pick up a few nickels and dimes and pennies，but to be quite honest，it's the rings，it's the jewelry; it's all here because people leave it behind.”“I've found a lot of jewelry at Fort Myers，Fort Myers Beach during Spring Break，” said Tisdale.“Oh my God，it's unbelievable.”You won't find these hunters looking to cash in.Tisdale and Jones keep their valuables in safety deposit boxes so they can hold on to the history and share it with others.In fact，as part of the Cape Coral Police Department's ‘Do the Right Thing' program，Jones and Tisdale charge a $25 fee to help people recover lost items.They then donate that fee to the department for them to pass on to kids in the area doing remarkable things.[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文.美国佛罗里达州的海岸上埋藏着无数的珍宝，许多寻宝者在那里耐心搜索.他们细心收藏找到的宝贝，因为这些宝贝承载着历史.8．What does the u nderlined part “the talk” refer to?A．Florida is rich in treasure.B．Florida has a long history.C．Fairy tales are popular in Florida.D．Sunshine is the symbol of Florida.解析：篇章结构题.根据第三段中的Tales of treasure run deep in Florida's history和下文人们找到许多宝藏的事实可知，这种传言(传说佛罗里达埋藏着宝藏)是真的.答案：A9．Why are Tisdale and Jones interested in treasure-hunting?A．It makes them rich.B．It brings surprises to them.C．It helps them get closer to nature.D．It allows them to help owners of lost jewelry.解析：细节理解题.根据第七段What is the attraction of combing these beaches？和第八段中的it's never knowing what you're going to find可知，他们两个人喜欢在海滩寻宝是因为这个过程总能带给他们无限惊喜.答案：B10．How do Tisdale and Jones deal with the treasure they find?A．They cash it. B．They donate it.C．They keep it safe. D．They share it with others.解析：细节理解题.根据倒数第二段中的Tisdale and Jones keep their valuables in safety deposit boxes可知，他们找到宝贝后，会把宝贝收藏在保险柜里.答案：C11．What's the purpose of the text?A．To show the richness of Florida.B．To praise two big-hearted Floridians.C．To introduce treasure-hunting in Florida.D．To ask readers to hunt for treasure in Florida.解析：写作目的题.美国佛罗里达州的海岸上埋藏着无数的珍宝，许多寻宝者在那里耐心搜索.文章讲述了他们的故事.答案：CDTractors are a big part of family farm life，which is one reason farmers and advocacy groups have heavily criticized a U．S.Department of Labor proposal (议案) that would bar children under age 16 from doing many dangerous farm jobs，such as driving a tractor and handling pesticides (杀虫剂)．But while traditional family farmers say the change threatens the future of agriculture，child and labor advocates say the plans are a much-needed update to protect young workers.The changes do include a legal exemption (免除) for farm families that would allow children to work on the farms owned by their parents.But it would still affect many small farmers who hire kids in the summer on their land.At the 20-acre farm of Julie and Scott Wilber near Boone，Iowa，for example，Drew,14，and Jade,12，could still do any work their parents ask of them under the changes.But the Wilbers' employee,15-year-old MacKenzie Lewis，would be prohibited from driving the four-wheelers. The Wilbers say finding part-time seasonal workers is difficult.“It's easier to hire kids or teachers，because people who have regular full-time jobs aren't going to quit their job to work in the summer，” Julie Wilber says.Farm work is one of the most dangerous occupations，and it frequently affects the 1.26 million children under age 20 who live on farms in the U．S..According to the U．S.Department of Agriculture，an average of 104 children die each year as a result of a farm-related injury，and more than 22,000 kids are injured.Child safety advocates and others applauded the proposal.Barry Estabrook，a journalist who hasdone extensive reporting on farm labor，says given the extent of injuries，the pr oposal was “timid at best”．Children who work in agriculture have little protection under the Fair Labor Standards Act，unlike those who work in other occupations，said Barry.“I don't see it as any more absurd to imagine a child driving a backhoe on a construction site than driving a backhoe in the farm fields，” he said.“What is the fundamental difference？”[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文.是否应该允许未成年人驾驶拖拉机？一些农民和儿童劳动保护组织的观点完全对立.12．What does the proposal aim to do?A．Protect farmers' interests.B．Free kids from farm work.C．Avoid the danger of driving.D．Guarantee the safety of kids.解析：推理判断题.根据第一段中的bar children under age 16 from doing many dangerous farm jobs，such as driving a tractor和第二段中的to protect young workers可知，这一议案的提出是为了保障未成年人的安全.答案：D13．What do Julie Wilber's words mean?A．Kids and teachers do a good job.B．Farm work is too dangerous for kids.C．The change will cause hardship for them.D．Their sons can no longer give a helping hand.解析：推理判断题.举Wilbers的例子就是为了说明第三段中的But it would still affect many small farmers who hire kids in the summer on their land.季节性临时工不好找，相对来讲，找老师和学生还容易些，因为他们有假期.但是新的议案不让未成年人做开拖拉机等危险的农场工作，这就给Wilbers带来了麻烦.答案：C14．How does the author explain the danger farm work is causing for kids?A．By listing numbers. B．By giving examples.C．By analyzing reasons. D．By making comparisons.解析：写作手法题.根据倒数第四段中的affects the 1.26 million,104 children die,22,000 kids are injured可知，这一段给出具体的数字来说明儿童做农场工作的危险性.答案：A15．What's Barry Estabrook's attitude towards the proposal?A．He doubts it.B．He is in favor of it.C．He is strongly critical.D．He is uncertain about it.解析：推理判断题.根据倒数第三段中的Child safety advocates and others applauded the proposal.Barry Estabrook及最后一段中Barry Estabrook所说的话中的absurd及文末发出的疑问可知，他认为相对于在其他行业工作的儿童，服务于农业的儿童得到的法律保护较少，类似于这样的议案早就该出台，因此他反对儿童开拖拉机，支持该议案.答案：BⅡ.阅读七选五This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant，especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them.They can seem forgetful and clumsy.16They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history.17Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First，understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others.Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.18And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming，try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple，like taking a shower or walking，or even making meaningless drawings.It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate.“Mindfulness”，being focused，is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. 19Finally，you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.20Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.

A newborn baby would 46.be_dressed (dress) in a gown for his first year or two. Then he was “breeched (穿裤礼)”and wore articles of clothing like shorts.The usual custom is that a boy graduates to trousers around eight years old.With times 47.changing (change), middle-class boys began to wear trousers but they are considered suburban(呆板的) by the upper. Hanson explains，“It is a very English thing 48.to_dress (dress) a young boy in shorts.”The British upper are always keen to hold on to the tradition, and this also 49.silently (silent) marks them out from “the rest”. However, as for William and Kate，the 50.decision (decide) to dress George in shorts is more likely down to the tradition than a class issue.Ⅴ.短文改错Last weekend we went for camping in the mountains with our teacher, Anna.

Unit 9 Wheels李仕才一、阅读理解AFidel Castro was born at his father’s farm on August 13, 1926. His father, Angel Castro, was a migrant to Cuba from Galicia, Northwest Spain. He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Biran, Oriente Province.Aged six, Castro was sent to live with his teacher in Santiago be Cuba, before being baptized(洗礼)into the Roman Catholic Church at the age of eight. Being baptized enabled Castro to attend the la Salle boarding school in Santiago, where he regularly misbehaved, so he was sent to the privately funded Dolores School in Santiago. In 1945 he transferred to a more famous school, De Belen in Havana. Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university. Passionate about anti-imperialism and opposing U.S. interference in the Caribbean, he unsuccessfully campaigned for the presidency of the Federation of University Students on a platform of “honesty, decency and justice”. Castro became critical of the corruption and violence of President Ramon Grau’s government, delivering a public speech on the subject in November 1946 that received coverage on the front page of several newspapers.In 1947, Castro joined the Party of the Cuban People, founded by Eduardo Chibas. Chibas advocated social justice, honest government, and political freedom, while his party exposed corruption and demanded reform.

After locals started bringing them injured animals，they built a wildlife hospital and have since cared for 170 otters.Paul has gained a PhD in otter ecology and they've set up the International Otter Survival Fund ()，which supports conservation projects worldwide.Their three kids had carefree childhoods in a tight-knot community.“We could give them lots of freedom because people watch out for each other's children here，” Grace explains.She continues，“We go to Inverness (a town in northern Scotland) about once a year for a concert，but otherwise everything we want is here.You have to be mentally and practically self-sufficient.We built a metal shed(小屋)，but that took off in the 90 mph winds.Anything not built solidly will leave.It's often very dark and wet from November to March，which can be quite depressing.If there's wind and rain at the same time，no amount of waterproof clothing will keep you dry.But we make up for it in the summer.With the long days，there's nowhere better.”Paul concludes，“There's something so special about living here and having a sense of belonging.”[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文.一对夫妇为了远离城市的喧嚣来到苏格兰西北部的斯凯岛居住.5．What can we learn about Paul and Grace?A．They grew up in the countryside.B．They have difficulty getting along with others.C．They hold different opinions as to where to live.D．They're determined and environmentally aware.解析：推理判断题.根据第四段中的Five years and 29 loan applications later，they moved可知，他们执着追求梦想；根据第三段中的It was our dream...run wildlife holidays and courses以及第五段介绍的他们在保护野生动物方面的所作所为可知，Grace和Paul夫妇有强烈的环保意识.答案：D6．What's life on Skye like in Grace's eyes?A．It's lonely.B．It's quite busy.C．It can be hard sometimes.D．It may be boring for young people.解析：细节理解题.根据倒数第三段和倒数第二段中Grace所说的话You have to be mentally and practically self-sufficient...Anything not built solidly will leave.It's often very dark and wet...can be quite depressing.If there's wind and rain at the same time，no amount of waterproof clothing will keep you dry可知，由于地理位置和天气因素，在岛上生活有时也很艰难.答案：C7．What's the best title for the text?A．A remote islandB．An otter-saving projectC．Getting away from it allD．Feeling at home in the city?解析：标题归纳题.文章讲述了一对夫妇为了远离城市的嘈杂来到一个僻静的岛上生活的故事.故Getting away from it all准确地概括了文章的主旨.第三段的get away from the rat race点明了他们的动机.答案：CCFor many Floridians，treasure is found in the weather，sun and sand.For others，the word ‘treasure’ holds true meaning.If you're willing to put in a little bit of work，there's a wealth of information in what lies just beneath the surface.Tales of treasure run deep in Florida's history.While they may seem like nothing more than fairy tales，in Florida there is a truth to the_talk.This summer，salvage(海滩救助) companies uncovered millions of dollars worth of gold on the east side of the state.While these types of finds are reserved for the professionals，other finds are for you to recover.“I've always been a lover of history.Anything that I can hold in my hand，” said Ed Tisdale，a Cape Coral man who，with his friend Norman Jones，has spent decades searching our sands with his metal detector.With half-a-century of metal detecting between the two，you can see them any given day on the hunt.What is the attraction of combing these beaches?“Well，it's never knowing what you're going to find，” replied Jones.“You're going to pick up a few nickels and dimes and pennies，but to be quite honest，it's the rings，it's the jewelry; it's all here because people leave it behind.”“I've found a lot of jewelry at Fort Myers，Fort Myers Beach during Spring Break，” said Tisdale.“Oh my God，it's unbelievable.”You won't find these hunters looking to cash in.Tisdale and Jones keep their valuables in safety deposit boxes so they can hold on to the history and share it with others.In fact，as part of the Cape Coral Police Department's ‘Do the Right Thing' program，Jones and Tisdale charge a $25 fee to help people recover lost items.They then donate that fee to the department for them to pass on to kids in the area doing remarkable things.[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文.美国佛罗里达州的海岸上埋藏着无数的珍宝，许多寻宝者在那里耐心搜索.他们细心收藏找到的宝贝，因为这些宝贝承载着历史.8．What does the u nderlined part “the talk” refer to?A．Florida is rich in treasure.B．Florida has a long history.C．Fairy tales are popular in Florida.D．Sunshine is the symbol of Florida.解析：篇章结构题.根据第三段中的Tales of treasure run deep in Florida's history和下文人们找到许多宝藏的事实可知，这种传言(传说佛罗里达埋藏着宝藏)是真的.答案：A9．Why are Tisdale and Jones interested in treasure-hunting?A．It makes them rich.B．It brings surprises to them.C．It helps them get closer to nature.D．It allows them to help owners of lost jewelry.解析：细节理解题.根据第七段What is the attraction of combing these beaches？和第八段中的it's never knowing what you're going to find可知，他们两个人喜欢在海滩寻宝是因为这个过程总能带给他们无限惊喜.答案：B10．How do Tisdale and Jones deal with the treasure they find?A．They cash it.

The Wilbers say finding part-time seasonal workers is difficult.“It's easier to hire kids or teachers，because people who have regular full-time jobs aren't going to quit their job to work in the summer，” Julie Wilber says.Farm work is one of the most dangerous occupations，and it frequently affects the 1.26 million children under age 20 who live on farms in the U．S..According to the U．S.Department of Agriculture，an average of 104 children die each year as a result of a farm-related injury，and more than 22,000 kids are injured.Child safety advocates and others applauded the proposal.Barry Estabrook，a journalist who hasdone extensive reporting on farm labor，says given the extent of injuries，the pr oposal was “timid at best”．Children who work in agriculture have little protection under the Fair Labor Standards Act，unlike those who work in other occupations，said Barry.“I don't see it as any more absurd to imagine a child driving a backhoe on a construction site than driving a backhoe in the farm fields，” he said.“What is the fundamental difference？”[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文.是否应该允许未成年人驾驶拖拉机？一些农民和儿童劳动保护组织的观点完全对立.12．What does the proposal aim to do?A．Protect farmers' interests.B．Free kids from farm work.C．Avoid the danger of driving.D．Guarantee the safety of kids.解析：推理判断题.根据第一段中的bar children under age 16 from doing many dangerous farm jobs，such as driving a tractor和第二段中的to protect young workers可知，这一议案的提出是为了保障未成年人的安全.答案：D13．What do Julie Wilber's words mean?A．Kids and teachers do a good job.B．Farm work is too dangerous for kids.C．The change will cause hardship for them.D．Their sons can no longer give a helping hand.解析：推理判断题.举Wilbers的例子就是为了说明第三段中的But it would still affect many small farmers who hire kids in the summer on their land.季节性临时工不好找，相对来讲，找老师和学生还容易些，因为他们有假期.但是新的议案不让未成年人做开拖拉机等危险的农场工作，这就给Wilbers带来了麻烦.答案：C14．How does the author explain the danger farm work is causing for kids?A．By listing numbers.

A．Having interesting things to think about also helps.B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C．Without wandering minds，we wouldn't have relativity，Coke or Post-it notes.D．At one time，daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.E．It involves slow，steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive. F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct，quite unlike sleep dreams，which may be hard to understand.G．Therefore，it's a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you're in the daydream zone.[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文，主要阐述了“做白日梦”的现象事实上有助于开发创造性思维.16．B通读第一段可知，第一段介绍的是大众印象中的白日做梦有哪些弊端，空格的前后句都是列举的劣势.B项也是其中的一个劣势.故选B项.17．C本段讲述的是做白日梦其实有着很多的好处.根据下一句中的“without such ideas and inventions”(如果没有这些想法和发明)可知，空格处应列举出几种伟大的思想或发明.故选C 项.18．A根据前一句“Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.”可知，感觉放松和安全有助于你做白日梦.A项中“also”为提示词，也是在介绍帮助你做白日梦的方式.故选A项.19．E根据本段首句可知，本段内容主要是关于当人们需要完全集中注意力时应如何避免做白日梦.E项中提到的慢慢连续呼吸是其中的一个方法.故选E项.20．G根据前一句可知，好的想法随时会出现，所以它们需要被及时记录下来.G项中的“Therefore”为提示词，同时也提到了两种记录方法.故选G项.Ⅲ.完形填空White clouds filled the sky.The sun's rays __21__ through them，spreading cheer and __22__.After the meal，Olivia lay back on the blanket，__23__ the amazing sky and Dad was __24__ the picnic food.“Dad，that __25__ over there looks like a rhinoceros(犀牛)！There's a horn (角)，two ears and a long tail，” Olivia said.“Is there?

A newborn baby would 46.be_dressed (dress) in a gown for his first year or two. Then he was “breeched (穿裤礼)”and wore articles of clothing like shorts.The usual custom is that a boy graduates to trousers around eight years old.With times 47.changing (change), middle-class boys began to wear trousers but they are considered suburban(呆板的) by the upper. Hanson explains，“It is a very English thing 48.to_dress (dress) a young boy in shorts.”The British upper are always keen to hold on to the tradition, and this also 49.silently (silent) marks them out from “the rest”. However, as for William and Kate，the 50.decision (decide) to dress George in shorts is more likely down to the tradition than a class issue.Ⅴ.短文改错Last weekend we went for camping in the mountains with our teacher, Anna. When we arrived, we made a camp fire first. Then, Anna taught us to catch fish so that they could have more food to eat that night. I liked the airs there because it was fresh and clean. Many stars were up highly in the sky and the moon looked bright. We all sat around the fire, listening Anna's stories about herchildhood. She was born into a poor family or she worked very hard to be successful. I was very touched that I couldn't sleep the whole night, thought about being a teacher in the future. When I get home, I said to my parents，“Everything was great about the camping. I want to be the teacher like Anna in the future.”答案：Last weekend we went camping in the mountains with our teacher, Anna. When we arrived, we made a camp fire first.

答案：BBDespite growing up in Croydon and Liverpool，neither Grace nor Paul felt at home in the city.After meeting at Staffordshire's Keele University，they fell in love with Skye on a geology field trip in 1979.“The island is only 50 miles north to south，but the variety of terrain(地形) and wildlife is impressive，” says Paul.Grace adds，“We both loved Gavin Maxwell's Ring of Bright Water and were really passionate about otters(水獭)．It was our dream to get away from the rat race，get married and run wildlife holidays and courses on Skye.”Five years and 29 loan applications later，they moved to Skye.They were relieved to say goodbye to crowds and traffic and found that the island (population: about 20,000) attracts like-minded people.“A lot of musicians and craftspeople move here，looking for peace，” says Grace. After locals started bringing them injured animals，they built a wildlife hospital and have since cared for 170 otters.Paul has gained a PhD in otter ecology and they've set up the International Otter Survival Fund ()，which supports conservation projects worldwide.Their three kids had carefree childhoods in a tight-knot community.“We could give them lots of freedom because people watch out for each other's children here，” Grace explains.She continues，“We go to Inverness (a town in northern Scotland) about once a year for a concert，but otherwise everything we want is here.You have to be mentally and practically self-sufficient.We built a metal shed(小屋)，but that took off in the 90 mph winds.Anything not built solidly will leave.It's often very dark and wet from November to March，which can be quite depressing.If there's wind and rain at the same time，no amount of waterproof clothing will keep you dry.But we make up for it in the summer.With the long days，there's nowhere better.”Paul concludes，“There's something so special about living here and having a sense of belonging.”[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。
